HC Deb 09 March 1904 vol 131 cc567-8
MR. TREVELYAN (Yorkshire, W.R., Elland)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether any proposals have come to his notice for introducing Chinese labourers into Rhodesia.

*MR. LYTTELTON

The British South Africa Company and the Rhodesian Land and Mine-owners' Association have asked that permission may be given for the introduction of Chinese labourers under the Southern Rhodesia Ordinances No. 18 of 1901 and No. 3 of 1902. The request is under consideration.
